I am interested in hearing how everyone manages local administrator accounts of client machines on their network. Do you leave them enabled or disabled? For those who allow local administrator accounts, do you use unique passwords? Are you using a homogeneous account across the network? If the latter is true, how do you guarantee AAA? For example, what would stop a cracker with access to one machine to use his cracked hashes across the network? -Johnny
